If all goes well, this summer I'll be building a new house. I've owned a few houses before, some of them built in the 1920s and 30s, and full of all the charm and quirks of an old house, and a couple that were pretty new, with the lack of craftsmanship and imagination that's typical in most new construction in the USA today. But this time I'm building a custom home, just to my specifications, so I can have whatever features I want, limited only by my imagination (and budget). I'd like to integrate some home automation features into the house, and include wiring for future expansion.

We wanted cable in every room. But we wired every faceplate with 2 100V AC, 2 RJ45, 2 RJ11, and 1 cable outlet. So, yes, the bathrooms got wired too. Although the way my son actually went about it was to mount the camera and run a cable through the ceiling into a duct and into his bedroom. I only found it when my packet sniffer saw the bandwidth spike. Then we found his website... oh, did he get an @ss whooping!
